Off The Shelf Chip Antennas An Instant Solution For Wireless Devices Featuring The Echo 10 Gsm Diele

The term chip antenna cover in a whole array of embedded antenna types from ceramic antennas to PCB antennas

. A chip antenna, depending on the frequency it is tuned to can be used to wirelessly connect electronic devices to network which might be GSM, GPS, Bluetooth, 4G and so on. Because embedded antennas are so common place and are relied on in so many of today's wireless devices, there are ample of off the shelf chip antennas available, all ready for product designers to utilise.

The antenna position relative to adjacent components and ground planes all can affect antenna performance. Thus design engineers must use care when creating a circuit layout which includes a chip antenna. Furthermore, Chip antennas are sensitive to other components in a circuit layout and have relatively less isotropic radiation patterns.

However, careful most chip antennas are based on a helix, meander, or patch design. To ensure proper operation, it is very important to follow the manufacturer's recommendations regarding footprint, ground areas, and mounting of the chip antenna.

When selecting a chip antenna for a design, it is important to compare all the data of the possible antenna contenders. Chip antennas come in various sizes, with a wide range of gain values and return-loss values, depending on the frequency range desired for the antenna. Of course the antenna performance isn't the only consideration, there is also the question of which chip antenna is the most economically viable, or offers the most bang for your buck.

The Echo 10 is a superb example of an Omni-directional chip antenna if you are looking for an embedded GSM antenna which offers great performance.

The Echo10 dielectric antenna element has been designed to meet the needs of European machine-to-machine (M2M) applications for cellular equipment. The surface-mount ceramic antenna has the advantage of a low profile and low return loss.

The Echo 10 ceramic type chip antenna also can withstand adverse temperatures from -40 to 85 degrees, and up to 75 percent humidity which makes this off the shelf chip antenna so ideal for the European market.
